Transcript

I'm in New York and I told her that every single time I come to New York I never have good food. I'm always eating a sandwich, a burger, a wrap, a chop cheese, some type of sandwich and not good real food. So today she's challenging me on that and we're at this chic and I've already said the food looks good, which is more than I have ever said before in my life. So I have hope but not too much. She said we got to get these wings, these mussels, these crispy rice and pork, and then I also saw this marinated raw crab. And as a blue crab lover, I have to eat this. This drink is really good. It's like a rum punch. And we also have these chicken wings. We got the mussels, these chicken wings, please. I would come back to New York to get these again. And then we got this raw marinated crab. Okay, now we have this crab curry and look at this fish. Oh my god. I want to live inside of it. Okay, maybe New York really does have good food.
